Additional information

Distributed sensing is one of the key capabilities of fibre optic sensing which differentiates it from most other sensing technologies. The work presents a significant extension of capability towards distributed monitoring of transverse loading at a very high spatial resolution, breaking the barrier of previous point sensing systems based on localised fibre Bragg gratings for transverse loading. The paper demonstrates the equivalency (in terms of sensing) between periodic structures as in a FBG and random structures as in Rayleigh scattering in terms of sensing and it was a journal “highlight publication” for the year 2010 (http:// http://iopscience.iop.org/0957-0233/page/Highlights%20of%202010)
